Garnet stone

 

Garnet stone is said to the stone of passion and vitality. It is a symbol of fire, truth, courage, faith, grace and compassion. It is said to be the most common gemstone among all of the stones. Garnet comes in many colors like orange, yellow, pink, purple, green, red, brown, black and many more. The most popular and common color is the Reddish brown in garnet.
  
The word garnet is derived from Latin word called ‘granatus’ which means grain (pomegranate seeds).Garnet is to be kept near to the body as its energy is balancing and peaceful. It works as a protection to the travelers. Garnet is birthstone of the month January, and it is anniversary gemstone for the 2nd year of marriage. 

 ---------------- This is one of the stones I will be showcasing for my March collection. Already working on these stones for few days, I like their reddish brown color and it works with silver and gold wrapping.. Very very nice tiny creations.
